Hey Gang: “The
weather outside is frightful”. Seems to
me I heard that someplace before. I have
just competed going through the seven weather forecasters prognostications on
the computer and the news, all are in agreement – it is going to be ‘frightful’. So, I will go to the shed and lay in some
gasoline, just in case the power lines decide they cannot handle the snow, ice
and wind and end up on the ground. Laid
wood in a while ago and the freezer is full of goodies, so as someone once said
“let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
Wow, it sure is pretty!
I have taken to watching the news on Monday morning between
the hours of eight and eight thirty and then turn on music. I have learned that unless there is something
really significant that happens, the news will be basically the same as last
week and my blood pressure tends to give me grief when I allow much of what is
happening and what is not happened to fill my brain.
But today I made an exception. It was my ‘tinker day’ when I do the things
on the ‘Honey Do’ List, so spent a good portion of the day in Gramps Toy Repair
shop. So I flipped the switch to the
four sided monster. I can handle it when
I am running power tools, vacuums and the things that make noise and block out
the noise coming from the mouth on the wall.
Today was especially harsh and degrading to most civilized
folks. I have asked the Lord for
guidance on many occasions, what could fill a nation of people with such hatred
that they feel their only recourse to having eternal life is to kill, kill and
then kill some more? It is kind of hard
to find out why, when the ultimate to killing is to be killed. Makes it tough to try and learn why they are
so angry when all you have, when the dastardly deed is done, is a basket of
body parts. But this has been programed
into many minds at a very early age.
The media also gave about equal time to those folks who want
to be the President of this here United States.
Now, I must admit that I do not understand these folks at all. One would think that if they are interested
in being the head honcho in the Oval Office that they would spend their time
trying to convince folks that they have solutions to the many problems facing
our nation.
It saddens my heart to see the mega millions being spent for
so called grown people, thought to have a degree of intelligence, spend their
air time trying to convince the voters of the nation how rotten and misguided
their opposition is. The mudslinging
turned especially ugly today- when the mud turned to bricks.
Well, that is enough mudslinging on my part. What I really want to share with you is that
there are good things happening in our world but, as the media tells us, ‘good
news do not sell papers.’ I received a
wonderful letter from the folks who develop and distribute the Jesus Film. I have heard good things about the impact
this film is making in the Muslim world before, but this one really touched the
cockles of my heart.
It is a bit lengthy so
will not copy it verbatim but want you to see why God does not say ‘enough is
enough’ and send His warring angels to put Satan in the pit and cleanse the
earth – yet! He did say, “It is my deep desire that no one, not a
single soul should perish.” He is
waiting for that last soul that He knows is the last one who will turn their
life over to Him.
Now, this is a bit lengthy and there may be some out there
that are not interested in Muslim woman coming to Christ, so we decided we
would alert you that we are not putting the letter on Gramps Morning Thoughts,
but putting the letter on grampswhatshappeningman.blogspot.com. You can decide to read or not to read!
Blessings,
Gramps
